Why do i get this error when converting to blocks

Arcade Help

I am making a game that i push to github. I found something similar from Feb 6. 2020.

But my code doesen’t use:

img’…

i use:

assets.image’…’

So i don’t get why i get this error. I could just code in TS but i am not that good at it and prefer blocks.

Game and github repo

If you fix it you can push to github and i’ll look into it :slightly_smiling_face:

Hello, I appear to be getting this error in my new project as well. I have systematically removed every bit of code one at a time to try and locate the issue. I also removed ALL of the code, same issue, I just cannot go back to blocks. Seems like a bug for sure. I can include anything you need, just let me know.

As a follow-up, here is my (JS) code that won’t convert to blocks:

enum ActionKind {
    Walking,
    Idle,
    Jumping
}
controller.left.onEvent(ControllerButtonEvent.Pressed, function () {
    animation.runImageAnimation(
        mySprite,
        assets.animation`animWalkLeft`,
        250,
        true
    )
})
controller.right.onEvent(ControllerButtonEvent.Pressed, function () {
    animation.runImageAnimation(
        mySprite,
        assets.animation`animWalkRight`,
        250,
        true
    )
})
let enemy: Sprite = null
function spawnEnemy() {
    enemy = sprites.create(assets.image`spriteGhrasto`, SpriteKind.Enemy)
    tiles.placeOnTile(enemy, tiles.getTileLocation(2, 7))
    enemy.follow(mySprite, 20)
}
sprites.onOverlap(SpriteKind.Player, SpriteKind.Enemy, function (sprite, otherSprite) {
    sprites.destroy(otherSprite, effects.spray, 500)
    info.changeScoreBy(1)
    scene.cameraShake(4, 500)
    music.play(music.randomizeSound(music.createSoundEffect(WaveShape.Noise, 5000, 1877, 255, 0, 500, SoundExpressionEffect.Warble, InterpolationCurve.Logarithmic)), music.PlaybackMode.UntilDone)
})
let mySprite: Sprite = null
scene.setBackgroundColor(15)
game.setDialogTextColor(2)
game.splash("Title")
game.setDialogTextColor(9)
game.splash("Dev Name")
scene.setBackgroundColor(9)
scene.createRenderable(scene.HUD_Z, function (target, camera) {
    const w = 40
    const h = 15
    const x = 2
    const y = 2

    // Draw outline
    screen.drawRect(
        x,
        y,
        w,
        h,
        /** black **/ 0x0
    )
    // Fill inside rect
    screen.fillRect(
        x + 1,
        y + 1,
        w - 2,
        h - 2,
        /** black **/ 0x0
    )
    // Fill it in with whatever else you want
    // text
    let t = info.score()
    screen.print(
        "  " + t.toString(),
        x + 2,
        y + 4,
        /** white **/ 0x1,
        image.font8
    )
    // or an image
    screen.drawTransparentImage(
        img`
            . . b . b . b
            . b b b b b .
            b . . b . . b
            b . . b . . b
            b b b b b b b
            . b . b . b .
            . . . . . . .
            . . b b b . .
        `,
        // if you want to space text horizontally,
        // note the t.length * image.font8.charWidth to
        // get the width of the text below
        x + 2,
        y + 4
    )
})
tiles.setCurrentTilemap(tilemap`roomBathDoomArena`)
mySprite = sprites.create(assets.image`Ducky`, SpriteKind.Player)
tiles.placeOnTile(mySprite, tiles.getTileLocation(4, 3))
animation.runImageAnimation(
    mySprite,
    assets.animation`animWalkRight`,
    500,
    true
)
game.onUpdate(function () {
    scene.cameraFollowSprite(mySprite)
    controller.moveSprite(mySprite, 50, 50)
})
game.onUpdateInterval(5000, function () {
    spawnEnemy()
})

Update: looks like it may have been a glitch in my actual project; I copy/pasted the code into a new project and was able to switch to block view. I’m going to copy all of my assets across to the new project and hopefully i’ll be g2g.

These kinds of issues are usually to do with an error in one of the system files, like pxt.json or such
